openDesktop.org :
thanks! but i wonder why it won’t work - the result is a simple .css file that i think it is perfectly "includable" from a theme (or patched theme) that would look for it - i kept in mind focusing on the worst scenarios, and providing compatibility as long lasting and widest as possible

i never coded in ruby, i'm more python and lua (and sdlbasic for solving daily personal problems, since i code faster there! :) )
- Jun 12 2012
css itself isn't, in theory, but the Gnome's implementation of it is far less comfortable than it could - the idea i posted here, as theme and script, is for humbly trying to fill this huge gap...
- Feb 14 2012
sorry - now it's really updated - gnome-look has some kind of bug when uploading...
- Feb 14 2012
updated, with better instructions about how to install and use it! - please check if it is easier now! thanks! :)
- Feb 14 2012
thanks! :)

for testing gnome-color-chooser, you can start trying those from http://gnome-look.org/index.php?xcontentmode=166 (made from me, you can find the oldest ones there - but you are welcome to create colour schemes better than those ones! :) )

awesome would be if we could run external scripts from gnome-color-chooser - i suggested it to Werner Pantke years ago, but he didn't add it (this could be a simple thing as running all scripts inside ~/.gnome-color-chooser/scripts after config.xml be created - this would be very useful for me, since i also use colourschemes on WindowMaker, Fluxbox, Openbox, etc. - if anyone can help improving/forking gnome-color-chooser for having this feature, please do... )

thanks a lot for the feedback, it's always awesome knowing that i'm not alone! :D - i'm also in the oppinion that gtk3 sucks, i made this for saving myself from insanity, since almost all gtk-based applications are becoming gtk3, and i hated that grey default theme, struggled on gnome-tweak-tool, and missed the gnome-color-chooser awesome configurability boost from gtk2 - soon i'll update a readme file for explaining better how to use it, and as well, i hope that people more skilled than me could improve it - overally, you just must create and apply a colourscheme from gnome-color-chooser, and a config.xml will appear - those .sh and .py are to be neighbour to it ( ~/.gnome-color-chooser ), and from the terminal in that directory, just enter 'bash (scriptnameiforgot).sh' - since there are no gui restart (and i don't know how to do it), all the gtk3 applications you run after that will be with this colourscheme, assuming you have everything else at ~/.config/gtk-3.0 - let me know if you could figure out and have it working now! :)

please consider making it compatible with gnome-color-chooser

clean and minimalistic - good one!

it’s awesome it’s there! ;)

btw, i really need to design an svg icon set closer to the default used on NeXTStep/OpenStep (btw, where from can we find the original/pristine ones, all of them?)
- Oct 14 2016
i added this theme in the recommendation to be voted at https://www.slant.co/topics/2086/~gtk3-themes - it’s in 3rd place now there, please help voting for reaching the 1st placer as soon as possible! ;)

yw! :)

i think there is a small bug: the background colour is not being applied on the keyboard brightness adjust “tooltip” - http://xomf.com/jzjyg
- Oct 14 2016
btw, if someone can help packing it to GNU/Linux distribution repositories, such as from Debian, Ubuntu, etc., please do! :)
- Oct 14 2016

it looks great after installing - i need to test it for seeing how compatible the gtk2 is to gnome-color-chooser, and the gtk3 with .css colour schemes converted from .gnomecc
- Oct 13 2016
this theme is exactly what i was looking for! :)
- Oct 13 2016
- Oct 13 2016
btw, might https://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/OneStepBack?content=170904 be useful for help creating a gtk3 version?
- Oct 13 2016
gtk3 too, please! :)
- Aug 02 2016
btw, i’m looking for a Motif-like (like used on Irix-4dwm or SunOS) theme for gtk3 - if anyone know where from can we find one, or if someone is about to create one, please let us know! thanks in advance! (and sorry for the “offtopic”! :D )
- Jul 22 2016
i want to see a gtk3 version of it!!! :)
- Jul 22 2016
i’m looking for a gtk3 version of it as well
- Jul 16 2016
- Jul 16 2016
btw, i’m looking for a gtk3 closer to Raleigh or Motif, where can we find one?
- Jul 07 2016
the file download part only shows a xml error - what is happening? :S
- Jul 07 2016
btw, where from can we find gtk3 motif-like themes, for using with this Metacity theme? would be really excellent! :)
- Jul 07 2016
- Jul 07 2016
excellent! (i just have to test if it is compatible with gnome-color-chooser! ;) )
- Jul 07 2016
about the docks, is that WMClock? how can we create/change the theme of it? and is that WMDocker? how can i have those paging arrows below? thanks!

no idea, it was just based on that, and conditioned to the features/limitations of PekWM

i can't download it from here, it shows "Http/1.1 Service Unavailable"

it's much more useful than it seems! :D

i think i have the qt4 code somewhere as well, it's not too different from qt3 (but it has some differences of course) - i also coded for/from fluxbox, irix 4dwm, etc. - some are spreaded around here at opendesktop.org , but i'm not sure exactly where, because i made them long time ago...
- Jun 12 2012
thanks! and there targets to a ubuntu/debian ppa, i didn't need to compile it anyway! :) http://ppa.launchpad.net/valere-monseur/valr/ubuntu/pool/main/a/awf/

i were starting with this recently, and sadly, there are still no guidelines about this, but i started it anyway - the most important step i think is understanding config.xml file generated from gnome-color-chooser, and using a similar colour scheme css file (i used a converter for creating a "config.css" which is imported from that theme) - since this config.css can be as customizable as config.xml from gnome-color-chooser (in my theme i started coding a converter for that), this would mean that you can use all colour scheme you want on your theme, just like on gtk3, qt3, qt4, WindowMaker, Fluxbox, etc. - what do you think?

btw, would be great if your themes join the team of gnome-color-chooser gtk3 "compatible" ones, anyhow! ;o) - http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/gnomecc+2+gtk3css+converter?content=148882

where from you downloaded widget factory? mine one only shows gtk2 themes...
- Feb 15 2012
at the first screenshot ( http://gnome-look.org/content/preview.php?preview=1&id=148660&file1=148660-1.png&file2=148660-2.png&file3=148660-3.png&name=BiSOFT-G3%2C+MacOS-like%2C+GTK-3.x+supported ) - do you know how can i add bevel at "name/permissions/size" part? i'm struggling a lot on my first one, i'm needing it for having it more visible, and looking more like Motif (from 4dwm/irix/sgi)

I'm trying to use gnome-tweak-tool 3.2.0, but it doesn't apply any kind of gtk3 theme. Do gnome-tweak-tool really works? or should we edit configuration files directly, and use commands from terminal, and reboot every time we want to change a gtk3 theme?
- Feb 06 2012
thanks!
- Jan 05 2012
how can we use gnome-color-chooser colour schemes there (gtk3)? - or may we need to run some script to convert these colour schemes to an external css file, like at '~/.gnome-color-chooser/config.css' (neighbour to '~/.gnome-color-chooser/config.xml') ?
- Dec 12 2011
where from do i can install iconv? (.deb package, from apt-get)
and could be this an improvement to your script? http://pastebin.com/8dYS3Zk3

please make it 100% gnome-color-chooser compatible! :)

i think it needs the Murrine engine installed? anyway, i only tested on Ubuntu Maverick (i think Ubuntu comes with Murrine defaultly preinstalled, from long time), nowhere else yet..
- Aug 14 2010
this means the original one is broken as well
- Aug 14 2010
thanks, this were the main idea. the only problem is still colours i couldn't fix or replace, like on gtkrc (some buttons appears preselected, and some linked texts -but i hope fixing it soon, and even better if i could get some feedback from their original authors)
- Aug 12 2010
what you're saying is awesome, because if you have better suggestions for colour schemes, please send .gnomecc files to me (or upload here at gnome-look.org), after testing on this theme - if these colour schemes from you are so awesome as you're saying, i'll replace these screenshots immediatelly! it's awesome being constantly learning more about colour harmony! thank you! :)
- Aug 12 2010
Please read the answer above, try gnome-color-chooser there, and tell me a better oppinion about.
